How would you expect the number of mitochondria in a cell to be related to the amount of active transport it carries out?

Well, I suppose that since mitochondria are the the main production centers of ATP and Active Transport requires ATP, that these two are directly proportional. The more mitochondria a cell has, the more ATP it can make, and the more it can do Active Transport

How do microvilli and mitrochondria help in the active transport?
The mitochondria produce energy which is needed for active transport. This means that without mitochondria active transport could not take place, thus, mitochondria help in this process.
What does mitochondria do in the loop of henle?
They provide ATP necessary for active transport.
Which vessel carries out diffusion or active transport with individual cells of the body?
sodium potassium pump
Does a root hair cell contain mitochondria?
Root hair cells will have mitochondria to provide the cell with ATP for active transport of minerals.. active transport of these minerals is needed as it can be against the concentration gradient.
What energy is used in active transport?
ATP is often used as the source of energy during active transport.
Does a cell require mitochondria for active transport?
Active transportation needs energy.(ATP). ATP is produced by mitochondria
How do microvilli and mitrochondria help in the active transport?
The mitochondria produce energy which is needed for active transport. This means that without mitochondria active transport could not take place, thus, mitochondria help in this process.
The energy needed for active transport is usually supplied by what?
The energy needed for active transport is usually supplied by Mitochondria and ATP.
What does mitochondria do in the loop of henle?
They provide ATP necessary for active transport.
What is a form of active transport that is similar to the work of carrier proteins?
mitochondria
Is any cell organelle involved in active transport?
mitochondria
What supplies the energy for active transport?
Mitochondria are what supplies energy to cells for active transport. ATP is the molecule that does this. Also known as adenosine triphosphate.
How the proximal convuluted tubule are adapted for selective reabsorption?
microvilli increase the surface area for absorption / active transport; mitochondria produce ATP for active transport;
When mitochondria are found near the surface of kidney cells the cells are probably?
using active transport
How cell organelle involved in active transport?
Mithocondria
Energy for active transport comes from a cell's?
the mitochondria because this organelle helps produce ATP for energy
Which vessel carries out diffusion or active transport with individual cells of the body?
sodium potassium pump
